Innovations in Aging

As part of the UArizona Health Sciences Global and Online initiative, the 100% online Innovations in Aging programs were built in collaboration between the UArizona College of Public Health, Colleges of Medicine, College of Pharmacy, and College of Nursing, in partnership with Arizona Center on Aging. Programs offer a rare, truly interdisciplinary approach to understanding aging and how to effectively implement positive change in interprofessional settings.

The online Innovations in Aging graduate certificate program prepares you to take a culturally competent, ethical, humanistic, and interdisciplinary approach to addressing the unique needs of the aging population. You'll benefit from innovative learning strategies and instructional technologies like flexible pacing, asynchronous learning, podcast-style content delivery, discussion forums, and motivational badges to mark your progress.

You will apply your learnings in real-world activities that are relevant to your ambitions while participating in the aging community through building upon prior work and sharing knowledge with your peers. The curriculum certified by the Association of Gerontology in Higher Education (AGHE) and will provide you with the coursework and experience needed to apply for professional certification through the National Association of Professional Gerontologists (NAPG).
